Discussion - Route Policy feature in Camel 2.1
Hi
A bit of background is CAMEL-1048
https://issues.apache.org/activemq/browse/CAMEL-1048
I am looking into this how to implement this nicely in Camel.
CAMEL-1048 is maybe a bit too much at current requirements from Camel users.
What they are looking for is to be able to dynamic throttle consumers.
Apache CXF and ServiceMix has such a feature specially build in their
JMS components.
What it does is that it can stop the JMS listener when there are too
many messages in flight.
But on the other hand we have also had Camel users wanting to dynamic
start/stop consumers depending on some flag of some sort.
So there is also grounds to make this a general solution that can
cater both use cases.
I do wonder how to move forward.
In CAMEL-1048 there is an example using requires to associate a route
that this predicate must be true for the route to be running.
I do not like the naming requires or require. And having it in the
fluent builder / DSL makes it fixed.
Wonder if we should name such a configuration a RoutePolicy so you can
configure it as
<route routePolicy="myRoutePolicy">
<from .../>
...
</route>
<bean id="myRoutePolicy" class=...>
<property name="maxInflightExchanges" value="500"/>
</bean>
This is quite flexible as we can just offer a SPI interface for the
RoutePolicy and have people implement it as how they like it.
For example as above something that is controlled by the number of
current in flight exchanges.
Others can control it by CPU utliization, a switch, timer based etc.
In the Java DSL its
from("xxx").routePolicy(myRoutePolicy).to(yyyy);

Hi
I have committed a first cut of this feature in rev 830861.
Please feel free to take a look.
And feedback on the locking in ThrottlingRoutePolicy class is welcome.
I did consider using try locks in case there was a race, as after all
we just want at least one of them to acquire the lock and invoke the
suspension / resume.
There may be clever ways to archive this.
For example running it by throttling this route
<bean id="myPolicy" class="org.apache.camel.impl.ThrottlingRoutePolicy">
<property name="maxInflightExchanges" value="16"/>
<property name="resumePercentOfMax" value="25"/>
</bean>
<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
<route routePolicyRef="myPolicy">
<from uri="activemq:queue:foo?concurrentConsumers=20"/>
<transacted/>
<delay><constant>100</constant></delay>
<to uri="log:foo?groupSize=10"/>
<to uri="mock:result"/>
</route>
</camelContext>
Will yield this output. Yes its throttling very often but this is due
to the low number of concurrent consumers and the fact the exchanges
are routed at a constant pace.

Re: Discussion - Route Policy feature in Camel 2.1

Hi
I have done some experiment and I am setting down for something like this
Where we can configure a route policy to use.
In this case we use a throtteling policy that is based on the number
of in flight exchanges.
In this example at most 16 in flights messages is aimed for. It can go higher.
But when the policy is investigated it will react if the current in
flight > max.
If so it will suspend/stop the consumer. And when it goes down to 25%
of 16 (=4) then it will resume / start the consumer again.
Apache CXF have already this feature. So its inspired from this project.
<bean id="myPolicy" class="org.apache.camel.impl.ThrottelingRoutePolicy">
<property name="maxInflightExchanges" value="16"/>
<property name="reconnectPercentOfMax" value="25"/>
</bean>
<camelContext xmlns="http://camel.apache.org/schema/spring">
<route routePolicyRef="myPolicy">
<from uri="activemq:queue:foo?concurrentConsumers=20"/>
<transacted/>
<delay><constant>100</constant></delay>
<to uri="log:foo?groupSize=10"/>
<to uri="mock:result"/>
</route>
</camelContext>
You can of course implement your own route policy and do whatever you like.
The route policy is this interface. I amy want to adjust the naming of
that method and maybe change it to be more routish.
Its based on a callback that is invoked when an Exchange is done being
routed. So maybe something as:
void onRouteDone(Route route, Exchange exchange);
is better as its more clear to the point. And you can get the Consumer
from the Route so you can grab it and susped/stop it on the fly.
public interface RoutePolicy {
/**
* Callback invokes when a {@link Consumer} have consumed and
created an {@link Exchange}
*
* @param consumer the consumer
* @param exchange the created exchange
*/
void onConsume(Consumer consumer, Exchange exchange);
}

Hi
I have implemented this feature into the trunk now.
You can checkout the documentation at
http://camel.apache.org/routepolicy.html
And I have also added an example you can play with
./examples/camel-example-route-throttling
Which also has a bit of documentation at
http://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/CAMEL/Route+Throttling+Example

Hi
I recently added an example as well based on throttling a jms route.
camel-example-route-throttling
There is a README.txt with instructions to run it.
